Sub 2:19:00 marathon Personal: I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday. Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.
I am also the proud daddy of five little ones. I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running. |

| I ran with Sasha and Ted this morning for the first time since the beginning of November. I felt fine, but I was more tired later then I should have been due to not being used to the mileage and the lack of sleep.We ran really slow because of all of the snow on the ground and the temperature when we began our run was 19 degrees | | Add Comment |

| I decided that I needed to keep my run short because I am afraid to do too much too soon. I kept the pace easy but a little faster than yesterday because there was not quite as much snow on the trail and I was running later in the afternoon. | | Add Comment |

| my hips have started bothering me again. It is a problem that I have had off and on since my freshman year in college, where my hips get out of alignment and I begin to experience pain in the socket area of the hip joint on one side. It won't take too long for me to fix the problem, but I decided to take today off in order to be safe. | | Add Comment |

| my hip wasn't hurting as much today, but I ran indoors to make sure that nothing was wrong and so that I could stop immediately if it started to hurt. I felt fine but my hip did feel a little tight near the end of the run | | Add Comment |

| my hip is feeling a lot better than it did on Wednesday when it hurt the worst, but worse than it felt yesterday. I think that after today I should be fine and I hope that I should be able to run every day from here on out. It didn't hurt too much today, but there was a little discomfort at times when I would move around while at work or just doing other things during the day. | | Add Comment |

I ran with Sasha in the afternoon. We were running at about a 7:00 pace and it felt fairly relaxed, but we picked it up to about 6:30 pace for the last few miles. This felt harder than it should have due to the snow and ice. It also made me realize that I still have a ways to go before I really start getting back into shape again. In the afternoon my knee started to act up a little bit. I think that this is because my body is just getting used to running again and everything should be fine.
